October Means it's Time for Pumpkins

(Published on - 10/24/2023 2:23:55 PM)

Whether you love them for making pies, for decorating your front porch or for carving jack-o-lanterns, pumpkins are the stars of fall for lots of people. Our area has a lot to offer when it comes to pumpkin patches, corn mazes, and other outdoor fun for the whole family. Your favorite Hickory Real Estate Firm even celebrated at the office with our own pumpkin carving contest! Our top producing REALTORS® can also produce some pretty spectacular (or spooktacular) works of pumpkin art. We don't just sell more homes than the competition, we love to have fun as well. Keep scrolling after the video for a list of fall fun attractions in the area!
